Help us keep on giving.

Sponsored by Workhorse, Lexington Poetry Month is an easy to use platform for poets to publish and share their work in an attractive way. The community is supportive and diverse, commenting and encouraging one another throughout June. Money we raise goes to maintaining the cost of the website and publishing the yearly anthology. Our goals are to provide every poet (~150) a copy of the anthology, lower printing costs, and expand opportunities offered during Lexington Poetry Month, such as featured readings and poetry workshops.

Maggie Ruth | LexPoMo 2022

Bio for 2022

Maggie Ruth is a freshman at Bellarmine University. She is an occasional gardener, an experimental cook, and a musician. She gets a little too invested in fictional characters and probably spends too much of her time daydreaming.

Reason for signing up:

I need to let go of my perfectionism and LexPoMo allows me to do so in an environment where I feel comfortable and safe.
